Summary
What wakes Adora up tonight isn’t something she normally expects; it’s not a nightmare, not insomnia, not even a waking punch in the shoulder from her girlfriend when Adora sleep fights—it’s a feeling.
or
Catra dissociates, and Adora will do whatever it takes to help bring her back.

Summary
They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.
But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

Summary
Catra pulled away, and Glimmer saw she wasn’t the only one crying. They stared at each other, two girls up very, very high, and Glimmer found her chest humming with something unnamed and fiercely protective.
She raised her hand and cupped it against Catra’s cheek.
“If you fall—” she said slowly, carefully. She wiped away a tear with her thumb. “-I’m going to catch you.”Both Glimmer and Catra have been through a lot, and they've done things they regret. That doesn't mean they'll ever give up on each other. They're not allowed to give up on themselves, either.

Summary
“You don’t have to be so scared of this, you know,” Bow started, voice low. Catra’s chest tightened, just a little. “Not the- Not the contact. I get why that makes you nervous, I do. I just mean … leaning on us a little. Letting us take care of you. Because we want to. I know that’s hard to accept, but we do.”
“I’m a fully functioning adult person,” Catra said, “I don’t need anyone to take care of me.”In which Catra learns that it's okay to be vulnerable, and that leaning on people isn't the worst thing in the world.
